Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip met in their youth, and developed a friendship that resulted in a marriage proposal in 1946 (although not officially announced until the following year). They were married on the 20th November 1947 at Westminster Abbey. On the day, Princess Elizabeth was accompanied by her father, King George, to the abbey in the Irish State Coach (an enclosed, four-horse-drawn carriage) and the wedding was broadcast to 200 million radio listeners around the world. Since that day 70 years ago, Prince Philip has been by Queen Elizabeth's side, supporting her not only publicly but also privately.
A gorgeous gift that a monarchist will cherish forever! Order yours today!
Special features:Issued to commemorate the 70th Anniversary of the wedding of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip on 20th November 1947, your coin's design features an artist's impression of the wedding couple taken from photographs at the time. Celebrating their enduring union, this Tokelau legal tender coin marks the Platinum Wedding Anniversary (70 years) since the Royal Couple were married. The background of the coin shows the interior of Westminster Abbey, depicted in full-colour. Both the carriage and the exterior of the Abbey decorate the coin surround, along with a floral pattern taken from the lace design of Princess Elizabeth's wedding dress.
In 1951, Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip made their first visit to Canada as a couple. After the death of King George, Her Majesty returned in 1957, accompanied by Prince Philip, on her first official visit to Canada as the Head of State. The Queen addressed Canadians in a speech broadcast on TV and radio and opened the first session of the 23rd Parliament.

Although this is wonderful piece of art...it would much more impressive if it was 50 MM or bigger in size, especially for such an occasion!

This unique coin commemorates a special event in Queen Elizabeth II's life, and is worth adding to any collection as this Monarch has reigned for an exceptional length of time.

I would like to see the Mint do a Truer / More Real looking portrait of the royals. As a collector I obviously buy, however, some coins of the royals in the past few years, have looked almost cartoonish.
